About this house sitting position in Clifton Springs
We live on a 3.5 acre block on the Bellarine Peninsula. It feels like we're out in the country but we are only five minutes from the centre of Drysdale and twenty minutes from Geelong. It is a lovely part of the world.
We have a 3 year old female Rottweiler (Tilly), two Rainbow Lorikeets (Ruby and Shadow) and eight backyard chickens.
Our home has a well-appointed kitchen, comfortable lounge/dining and reading rooms and a separate cinema room. There is a hot tub on the deck and views over the bay.
We have a medium-sized orchard and vegetable garden. It is quiet in winter, but there will be some maintenance required so this house-sit will certainly suit a gardener.
The Bellarine Peninsula has some lovely coastal towns and beaches as well as wineries, golf courses, cafes and restaurants. There is plenty to see and do on the Peninsula, or you can easily drive into Geelong or take the ferry from Portarlington to Melbourne for the day.
The ideal sitters will love dogs and birds and be happy to spend time with them on a daily basis. They should also be comfortable in a semi-rural environment away from immediate neighbors. Given the length of the sit, we would prefer a couple and would need to meet each other before committing.
Our home includes a self-contained apartment that will be occupied while we are away. This will have minimal impact on you but if you are interested in this opportunity, and have questions about our set-up, please contact us for more information. Read more...

Reviews for Adrienne
Tilly, Shadow and Ruby were a delight to look after and we thoroughly enjoyed getting to know them and their personalities.
The communication was great (including the best manual we have ever had as sitters). The place was superb and featured wonderful views.
We also were able to enjoy the garden - what a fantastic self - sustainable way to live!
We would highly recommend Adrienne & Steve's place to other sitters.
